A log burner offers a focal point for the sitting area which is equipped with wall mounted flat screen TV, Sky, and internet access. The dining table seats 6 comfortably.
The ground floor sleeping accommodation consists of a double bedroom, twin bedroom with en suite bathroom, and a single bed room. The fully tiled bathroom includes a shower and a shaver point. The double and twin bed rooms have French windows opening out onto a paved area.
The cottage has a garden area complete with barbeque and views across the fields. The cottage is in a secluded location, with the nearest house ¼ mile away, except for the owner’s farm house which is adjacent. It is approached down a farm track and bridle path, which opens out into the farm yard, with a natural duck pond .

The bridle path leads to Pwlldu Bay via a woodland trail and the bays at Pobbles and Three Cliffs are close at hand, with the unique “links in the sky” of Pennard Golf Club sitting on the cliffs above. The well stocked village shop and tea room is approx. ½  mile walk from the Cottage.
